Not sure why you are being downvoted. Until Musk owns up to his Nazi salute, I won't have anything to do with Grok, no matter how good or cheap it is. And yes, we need to keep talking about this because it's absurd.
If you watch the actual video, you’ll see Musk saying “my heart goes out to you all” as he waves his arm in the air. The Left would love us to imagine he’s saying “sieg heil” or “exterminate the j3ws” or some such, but that’s far from the truth. The media hoopla around a freeze frame of someone raising their arm is a desperate partisan attempt to smear a political rival.
If Elon hadn’t worked with Orange Man Bad, then the Left would still be in love with him for his massive former donations to the Democrat political machine, and his work against climate change.
The whole “he’s a nazi” accusation is banal, and people are seeing through it now. That’s why we’ve moved on.
It wasn't an accident. He did it deliberately. Twice. He enjoyed himself doing it.
There's no value in the mental gymnastics to invent excuses for his fascist salutes. The rational thing to do is to accept the objective reality of it.

Here is the actual video in which Musk performs two fascist salutes at a political rally:
